After a decade in the corporate world, I needed a creative outlet away from screens. What started as a woodworking hobby in 2020 quickly became an obsession. Today I build premium cutting boards full time.

Woodworking blends my love for precision with the raw beauty of nature. I am constantly fascinated by the living history of timber and love watching the unique grain reveal its true depth the second the oil hits it.

Growing up in the Lower Mainland, finding a dedicated shop making premium kitchen boards was surprisingly hard. I started Jin's Woodshop to give our community a trusted local source for handcrafted pieces built to be the centerpiece of your home.

Almost every home has a cutting board, yet most are mass produced imports. Imagine the positive environmental impact if we chose to keep this essential tool local. I built Jin's Woodshop to help make that a reality. Over half our material is premium upcycled wood from Lower Mainland cabinet makers. To ensure zero waste, any scraps too small for boards are given to the local community for campfires and wood stoves. Wood dust is also donated to the public.
